Chapter 292 Old Taoist priest, come quickly and check on your wife, she's hit me again!
Tang Bugui left the Lan family that day, taking his group with him and leaving the capital.
Nobody knows where he went...
All we know is that he's going to find his daughter!
The Lan family, however, was in complete chaos...
Old Madam Lan and Madam Lan suddenly fell seriously ill, and Lord Lan aged ten years overnight...
The next day, during the morning court session, he was impeached again by officials...
The emperor simply assigned him a sinecure...
Lan Feng was also unlucky, but much better off than the other members of the Lan family!
Lan Feng received a letter, and as he read it, his body trembled uncontrollably…
Bai returned to Lanfeng's residence early the next morning. She took nothing with her except a letter of divorce.
In a fit of anger, Lan Feng ordered that Bai's dowry be thrown at the Bai family's doorstep.
It's as if the Lan family's luck has been suddenly sucked away...
Ever since Lan Xin'er was born, their Lan family has enjoyed a period of constant good fortune...
Suddenly, Lord Lan realized something and ran to his daughter's grave...
No, it's an empty grave now...
He was wrong!
But now, he can't even visit his daughter!
"He truly deserves it!" he sneered, and the next day he directly petitioned the emperor, hoping that the crown prince would marry someone else!
The Lan family is embroiled in various problems again, but all of this has nothing to do with Tang Bugui and his group.
"General, why don't you take a rest for a while..." Ten days later, Guard Ling frowned, looking at his general with worry in his eyes.
For the past ten days, the general has been eating and drinking on horseback. This would have been fine in the past!
But the general's body simply can't withstand such torment!
"I'm fine!"
Tang Bugui looked relaxed, with a hint of joy in his eyes.
"How can you say that? All you're good for is your stubbornness!" Guard Ling couldn't help but mutter.
He glanced at the sky, his brow furrowing slightly. "General, we're heading to An County today. Where shall we stay?"
Tang Bugui glanced at Guard Ling, took a bite of his dry rations, and said, "To the county government!"
What a joke! I've endured all this hardship and sleeping in the open just to find Little Su Bao as soon as possible!
According to the Imperial Observatory, Xiao Su Bao is definitely alive.
The location is in An County!
But he has to find the exact location himself.
If they are destined to meet, they will naturally be able to meet!
Because of these words, Tang Bugui beat up Zhou Zhenghai!
He's a jinx, but as long as his little Su Bao is doing well, he's content...
He just wanted to catch a glimpse of her from afar...
A glimmer of hope appeared in Tang Bugui's eyes as he clenched his fists!
I think... I think I'm destined to be with Xiao Su Bao!
As they were talking, they entered An County.
On the other hand, Xiao Su Bao was very happy because she could finally go to school.
The little dumpling sat in the classroom, her eyes as bright as stars.
"At the beginning of life, people are inherently good..." Lang Lang's reading voice came from her mouth.
Tang Dabao and the others also sat to one side, their voices booming like bells.
Little Su Bao seemed to sense something and suddenly looked in the direction of An County.
She had a vague feeling that someone important was approaching her...
"Little Su Bao, what are you looking at?" Yun Qi walked up to the little dumpling with a ruler in her hand, her face full of seriousness.
Xiao Su Bao quickly looked away and raised her eyes to look at Yun Qi.
Yun Qi felt a little reluctant to be looked at by those big eyes.
But he still coughed lightly, hardened his heart, and said, "You tell me, what comes after 'raising a child without teaching him'?"
"If a child is raised but not taught, it is the father's fault; if the teaching is not strict, it is the teacher's laziness; if the child does not study, it is all wrong..."
Little Su Bao quickly and diligently began to memorize it.
"Hmm... I'll be more careful next time!" Yun Qi nodded, then said, "Everyone, please continue..."
The sound of reading aloud drew everyone from Tangjia Village to the doorway, but no one dared to interrupt.
Everyone listened attentively, their eyes filled with hope for the future.
Tangjia Village has made a fortune this year thanks to the trap insects.
"Hey, has anyone else noticed that it seems a bit hotter this year than in previous years?"
After listening for a while, the old women felt drowsy and pulled each other away from the school.
Once outside, everyone kept their voices down as they talked about recent events.
“That’s right. I went back to my parents’ home a few days ago. Our village is a bit far from the river, and I heard that all the wells in the village have dried up!” A young peasant woman frowned, her face filled with worry.
“My grandfather said that when they were young, they experienced a severe drought that killed many people!” the young farmer woman continued.
“I know what you’re saying. I was only ten years old then. Alas, a lot of people died in that drought!” The old woman who started the conversation couldn’t help but say.
Yun Qi, who had just come out for some fresh air, frowned upon hearing this.
He looked at the dry sky, a hint of worry in his eyes.
I wasn't born yet that year of the great drought, but I had heard my parents talk about it.
But there's nothing he can do about what God wants to do...
Little Su Bao and the other kids didn't care about any of that. As soon as they heard the school bell ring, they rushed out in a hurry...
Yun Qi put her hands on her hips and shouted at them, "You little brats, go back and practice your calligraphy properly. I'll check tomorrow, and if you haven't finished, I'll teach you a lesson!"
"Understood, sir!"
Bai Yinjun was at the very back, and Yun Qi grabbed him by the back of his collar and held him there.
The latter looked utterly dejected; it was him again, as expected…
“Especially you… you didn’t finish writing the big characters yesterday. If you don’t finish writing them today, then… finish writing them here before you go back!” Yun Qi snorted.
"I know, I'll definitely finish writing it today! It's just two large characters, don't worry, sir!" Bai Yinjun said confidently, patting his chest.
"Hmm..." Yun Qi responded.
After a pause, Yun Qi continued, "By the way, remember to share half of the cicadas you caught tonight with me!"
The young boy's eyes immediately lit up: "Okay, sir, don't worry, definitely..."
No sooner had he finished speaking than he saw Yun Qi's unfriendly eyes.
"I knew you were all sleeping soundly during the day, but it turns out you were all out catching cicada nymphs at night..." Yun Qi squinted, looking at them with a hint of danger.
"Sir, I was wrong!" Bai Yinjun quickly grabbed his ear and obediently admitted his mistake.
They knew it was wrong, but children always forget the time when they're playing.
Yun Qi glanced at Bai Yinjun with disdain and said, "Alright, enough is enough. You talk a good game, but you still want to continue. And you act like everyone's been young before..."
He paused, then looked at Bai Yinjun and continued speaking.
"I'll go with you tonight and show you what I'm capable of!"
Bai Yinjun was taken aback. This gentleman seemed different from the ones he had heard about...
Don't those teachers all like to beat students at the drop of a hat, and punish students who don't listen to them?
"What are you looking at? Finish writing your calligraphy early today, and memorize all the ancient poems I asked you to recite today!" Yun Qi said, then took her things and went back.
As soon as I reached the classroom door, I saw Xiao Su Bao.
The little girl blinked as she looked at him.
"Little girl, why are you looking at me like that?" Yun Qi smiled as she looked at Xiao Su Bao and reached out to hug the little dumpling.
"Sir, are you going to catch cicada nymphs tonight?"
The little dumpling is much bolder and more lively than when it first arrived.
Yun Qi nodded and said with a smile, "Hmm, you want to go too?"
Little Su Bao looked at Yun Qi, paused, and nodded her little head.
Yun Qi's smile grew even brighter. This little girl is really interesting...
"Son, son..." A voice came, and Yun Qi instantly shivered. He instinctively wanted to run away while holding Xiao Su Bao.
"Son, why are you running? Your father and I are calling you home for dinner!" Grandma Bai looked at Yun Qi with a loving expression, her wrinkles almost flattening out with a smile...
"I'm not your son..." Yun Qi was completely devastated!
He used to treat himself like a husband, but now he treats himself like a son. Doesn't he have any human rights at all?
Do I have to treat myself like a grandson from now on?
Yun Qi shivered instantly!
Little Su Bao smiled when she saw Granny Bai: "Granny Bai..."
"Oh dear, little fairy, have you been kidnapped by this thief?"
Grandma Bai suddenly grabbed a broom and rushed towards Yun Qi.
The broom was draped over him, making him look imposing.
"Help! Nameless old Taoist priest, come quickly and see your wife! Your wife is hitting me again!"
This time, however, Xiao Su Bao did not help her husband.
The little guy stood to the side, staring at the spots where Grandma Bai hit him each time.
The little dumpling seemed to have seen something, and its eyes brightened even more!
Seeing that Granny Bai was tired from hitting, he went up and grabbed Granny Bai's hand.
"Grandma Bai, you've worked so hard..." The little dumpling said to Grandma Bai in a cute, childish voice, holding a broom.
Grandma Bai was panting heavily, but she still had a smile on her face when she looked at the little dumpling.
"Little fairy, this old servant is not tired. This old servant can still fight this little vixen for three hundred rounds..." Granny Bai shouted.
The nameless one had already arrived, but... it was clearly too late!
Hearing his wife say that, he was immediately horrified!
His lips twitched, and he rushed to his wife's side.
"Sister Bai, the rice is ready! Hurry home and eat!"
What kind of otherworldly demeanor is this...
Never mind, he doesn't have any anyway!
Before, I could still be sloppy, but now I not only have to shave, but I also have to do physical labor every day!
He held his lower back, feeling a bit frustrated.
What a darn coincidence!
"Husband, look! This unfilial son isn't coming home for dinner! Give him a good beating!" Granny Bai shouted at Wuming immediately.
The nameless Taoist priest paused, then his lips twitched slightly when he saw Yun Qi's face!
Sure enough, even with her intelligence suppressed, her older sister still prefers good-looking people...
Yun Qi...
You're really lucky...
“Alright, our grandson is waiting for dinner at home. Let’s go home first. Let this unfilial son go hungry today!” Wuming reached out and took Granny Bai’s hand, his eyes filled with tenderness.
Granny Bai glanced at Yun Qi, then at her husband, and hesitated...
“Son, you’re so handsome, be careful lately, there might be bloodshed…” Grandma Bai had just finished speaking when she suddenly felt a headache.
"Alright, alright, let's go home!" Wuming hurriedly pulled Grandma Bai away without looking back.
The little dumpling reached out and tugged at Qi Yunqi's hand: "Sir, can I go catching cicada nymphs with you today?"
Xiao Su Bao's voice is soft and gentle, and she looks very pretty when she laughs.
Yun Qi originally wanted to refuse...
"good……"
He looked into those round, glassy eyes and couldn't resist!
Upon hearing this, Xiao Su Bao immediately smiled sweetly, let go of Yun Qi's hand, and turned to leave.
Quite ruthless...
"Goodbye, sir..."
The little dumpling left happily, its feet light and quick.
Yun Qi shook her head helplessly. This girl seemed happier than before.
Before the little dumpling even entered the Tang family home, she heard the sounds coming from inside.
"Mother, these past few days I've been going up the mountain with some villagers to clear the weeds from the irrigation ditch. The sun's been scorching these past few days, so we need to water the crops!" Tang Cheng said while drinking water.
Little Su Bao paused, her eyes involuntarily turning to the sky.
Suddenly, the little girl felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Xiao Mo Bao noticed that she was acting strangely today, so she chased after her.
Reach out and grab her arm!
The little boy frowned and reached out to touch the little girl's forehead...
Well, thankfully, nothing's wrong!
Little Su Bao looked up at Mo Bao with gratitude in her eyes.
With a creak, Tang Si opened the door from the inside and saw the two of them in this scene.
Tang Si casually pulled his younger sister over, looking at Xiao Mo Bao with a slight displeasure in his eyes!
If Xiao Mobao hadn't been different from other children, her past experiences would have been too pitiful.
He probably already beat up that brat who's eyeing his sister!
"Fourth Brother..." Xiao Su Bao smiled at Tang Si, then turned to look at Xiao Mo Bao.
He didn't say anything, and turned to leave.
Because of his past experiences, he is more emotionally sensitive than anyone else.
He knew his limits and knew when to advance and retreat. Knowing that Tang Si didn't like him being with Xiao Su Bao, he decided to go home.
"Mo Bao, thank you for pulling me up just now, otherwise Su Bao would definitely have fallen." Little Su Bao reached out and grabbed Mo Bao's hand.
"Fourth brother, may I invite Mo Bao to our house to play?"
Little Su Bao turned to look at Tang Si. Tang Si coughed lightly and was about to speak when he heard his mother's voice.
"Fourth brother, what are you doing? You're thick-skinned and not afraid of the heat. If you get your little sister sunburned or tanned, see how I deal with you!" Madam Qian shouted outside.
As they spoke, they walked outside and were taken aback when they saw Mo Bao standing there.
Looking at her son again, she suddenly understood a few things.
"Alright, everyone, go inside. Your sister-in-law just made some herbal tea, go and drink some quickly, lest you catch a heatstroke..." Qian said, carrying Xiao Su Bao ahead.
Seeing that Mo Bao was about to leave, Madam Qian said, "Mo Bao, why don't you come in and play too!"
Mrs. Qian glanced at her sons with a slight headache...
Because, a few days ago, many families in the village wanted to arrange a marriage between their children and Xiao Su Bao...
This angered all the men in the family, young and old.
Nowadays, the men in the Tang family are keeping a very close eye on their younger sister, their aunt!
Qian glared at Tang Si, who then looked away!
Suddenly, Xiao Su Bao thought of something and turned to look at Mo Bao.
